J-K elections: Mehbooba Mufti won't contest polls, calls CM post powerless

Quick Summary:

Notably, Abdullah had himself vowed not to contest the elections until the statehood status of Jammu and Kashmir was restored.

Her remarks were a reference to the administrative powers of the LG in Jammu-Kashmir, which the Opposition claimed would leave the elected legislative Assembly with no real authority.

The Jammu-Kashmir Assembly polls will be held parallel to the elections in Haryana, with counting for both states scheduled on October 4.
